New York, NY— May 22, 2025 — Celebrate 450 issues of spellbinding adventure and magical mystery this September in DOCTOR STRANGE #450, a giant-size one-shot packed with all-new stories set across different eras of Doctor Stephen Strange! It’s a concoction of tales worthy of the Master of Mystic Arts as current Doctor Strangescribe Derek Landy is joined by two of the character’s most influential writers, Roger Stern and J. Michael Straczynski, along with a host of superstar artistic talent including Ron Lim and Ivan Fiorelli. In addition, acclaimed creator Christian Ward makes his Marvel writing debut on a story that he’ll also draw.
Stephen’s quest to become the Sorcerer Supreme of Asgard is currently unfolding, a key development in the ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM event. In DOCTOR STRANGE #450, Landy will continue to explore this fantastical new direction for Strange and reveals a glimpse at what comes next!
As turmoil seizes Asgard, Doctor Strange’s life is about to change forever. But as he stands on the threshold of a true journey into mystery, it turns out the past isn’t quite done with him yet…
“For 62 years, Stephen Strange had guided readers through the magical realms of Marvel, steering us from one mind-bending horror to the next. As a writer, to be given the chance to turn the tables, to be a part of this milestone issue and, within it, to steer the good doctor towards the dark adventures that await him, is a thrill beyond measure,” Landy shared.
